Infrastructure development carried out by the Central Government should be aimed at the public interest. In the field study at the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR), it was found that the process for determining drinking water infrastructure development priority had not considered the social aspects and the people’s needs. The Central Government simply classified the district and the city priorities for the infrastructure development by the mandatory document that they prepared. Unnoticed by them, this method of classifying had not yet considered the people’s needs. To respond to that issue, research needs to be done regarding the criteria that can be used for classifying and/or prioritizing the development of drinking water infrastructure in a district/city to be more pro-people. The stages of the research are as follows: direct interview and field study at the Directorate General of Human Settlements (DGHS) of the Ministry of Public Works and Public Housing (PUPR). The field study process produced criteria and methods for making priority scale on the drinking water infrastructure development that have been currently used by the Central Government. While the direct interview produced additional criteria form the experts in the drinking water and infrastructure development programming field within the DGHS. Based on the results of the interviews and the field studies, a literature study and research were conducted to produce pro-people criteria and their measurement methods for the determination of the drinking water infrastructure development priority level. This research produced three major criteria with twenty sub-criteria following them. The three criteria are Central Government Priority Programs, Local Government Technical and Financial Conditions, and Socio-economic Conditions of the Peoples. With these new criteria, people’s conditions are taken into consideration for determining the drinking water infrastructure developments priority level in a district/city level, without ignoring the Central Government programs and the Local Government conditions.
